Converting Failure into Success

Avijit Das shares his unique journey to success!

After weeks of continuous rains, a bright, sunny morning greeted us at Inspiria Knowledge Campus as we waited for the seventh session of Inspiring Story Series. The students had assembled in good number and there was a buzz of enthusiasm in the air as the speaker on the occasion Mr. Avijit Das, the CEO of Disha Web Experts took centre-stage.

How failure can be made the foundation of success! This was the theme Avijit dwelt on, narrating his own life story in the process. It was soon apparent that Avijit was a great public speaker. He spoke with intelligence and humour and the students listened to him with rapt attention.

He mentioned how his desire to study B.Pharm was shattered due to financial constraints. He enrolled for the BCA course and failed in the very first semester. He was shattered but did not lose hope. Motivated by one of his teachers, he pushed himself forward and eventually became the best student in the college. He encouraged our students to detect the spark that is within them to move forward in life. He attributed his success to one of his teachers who helped him realize the characteristics that helped him to reach where he is right now. He shared the three tips that helped him grow and assured the youngsters that if they kept these tips in mind, nothing would come in the way of their career’s progress.

The first step towards success according to Mr.Avijit was public speaking, he feels it is vital for success. Second, one should always have a positive frame of mind and finally it was necessary in this age to develop a strong presence in social media. These are the three factors that kept Avijit going during his struggling days.

The students were so impressed with his speech they gave him a standing ovation. At the end of the programme, he was presented a memento by the Principal of Inspiria Dr. Malay Kanti Karanjai.
